Heidi and James' Wedding Day

As I indicated in my last post, I was actually one of Heidi's bridesmaids in this wedding. Even though it wasn't my job, I don't really know how to be at a wedding without taking pictures, so I did my best to snap some shots throughout the day. For the photographer's photos from the day, you should check Jeff Simpson Photography's website. They did a GREAT job, and I know their photos, particularly the portraits, are going to be beautiful!

We began the day by getting ready together at Heidi's hotel. You'll see photos of the bridesmaids flowers, and to truly appreciate them, you have to know that Heidi made all of the bouquets. Now, I don't mean that she went to Micheal's and bought silk flowers. I mean that she bought silk. She cut out circles. She hand singed the edges. She sewed jewels into the center. Etc. Etc.

Oh, yeah, and she hand made all of these pinwheels, too!

She also made the blocks for table markers. As in: cutting 2x4s, gluing pieces together, typing up their story, converting the text in photoshop to print backwards, and using an acetone rub to transfer the text to the wood!
